Being dead broke is the root of all evil.There are people in this country who can spend $1 million a day for 300 years and you’re talking about generational wealth?
Has anyone ever thought that maybe the accumulation of that many resources is unnatural?
But, if this is going to be sticky--basically a get rich scheme. Atleast know the reality of this advice.
We really in here talking about "just save $20,000" like it's nothing.
This...
...is how you fix black American wealth. Not "flipping" a life insurance policy.
There talking about giving Latinos reparations over ICE and we supposed to tighten our belts.
Just a little FYI when graphs and articles speak on "wealth" they aren't talking about wages but assets like the value of your Homes, land, etc and investments/savings which is what the OP is talking about so basically we are so behind in that category because we Aren't doing this type of stuffI'll take being called negative or troll or agent.

This pisses me off.
This is fed data.
1. Lack of discipline and overall affordability. This is a great idea but people have problems saving money. I don’t see them prioritizing a life insurance payment of hundreds of dollars if times get hard.Ok, let's sanity check this plan, OP. What are some reasons why this WOULDN'T work. Be objective. Somebody already mentioned inflation, what else?
It's not expensive at all but you run the risk of being murdered and the money being fukked off to be able to build enough wealth to last multiple Generations. Also one million is not enough to generate this type of wealth OP is talking aboutHow much of premimums does it cost to maintain a million dollar policy?.
Nvm, did my own research , would never let my girl know shyt about that. Really not that expensive
OP is thinking on the right track, but Whole life is garbage. Can't believe people here are pushing that. Insurance agents are already shady as it is. Expensive as fukk, and should not be used as an "investment". Leave that to your 401k, Roth, IRAs, and real estate (flipping houses, or renting out). Those are the true ways to build wealth.
My neighbor is an insurance agent and even he thinks Whole Life is trash, but he doesn't mind selling them to cacs (since that's most of his customers), but he'll put everyone else on game.
Life insurance is not an investment, it should be only used to protect your family in case you die.
Article: The Truth About Life Insurance
don't ever get whole life insurance. the monthly cost is ridiculously high and the payout is very low. you're better off getting universal if you're gonna get insurance.
a bigger payout would be to deposit that money in an ira and let it grow. you'll get a bigger return for sure.
